RB Leipzig chief Max Eberl admits there is a "risk" of Christopher Nkunku leaving in 2023.

Chelsea are said to have struck terms with both the club and player, with the France international due to move to London at the end of the season.

Asked about the situation, Eberl concedes Nkunku could soon be on his way.

"With Christo I can't confirm anything yet,“ said Eberl.

"That there is a lot of interest and a lot is said with us is so. Accordingly, there is a risk.“
